Working on converting it all to stdenv from rustplatform. |
|
In my roadmap https://github.com/Eveeifyeve/buildTauriApp/issues/1 |
|
today I am going to push more documentation and see if I can get it working on my end and provide a build template to get started to build tauri for desktop only I haven't gotten around mobile. |
|
I am looking to add more documentation about packaging for nix/nixos using the hook: NixOS/nixpkgs#335751 |
|
Is it okay to rebase @simonhyll to fix this merge confict? |
|
Fix it however you prefer. rebase or "normal" merge, we don't really care :) |
|
I am waiting for this: NixOS/nixpkgs#335751 to be on all unstable channels before I make docs about building for nix/nixos |

Some of this is really good, but a lot of it feels like overkill. Many of the instructions here already apply to Nix/NixOS if you know how to use it (like what dependencies to install, how to install them, etc) and others are so exclusive to NixOS that I don't think upstream documentation is the place for it
I would recommend moving much of this to wiki.nixos.org, as it will have a lot more support and recognition from its target audience there. Nix/NixOS should be treated mostly the same as other distros here IMO

@getchoo for some reason libiconv is required maybe for plugins?

What plugins specifically? It'd be nice to note it
I also imagine that would be a macOS exclusive dependency; libiconv is hardly ever used on Linux

I would have to test to see which plugins require it.

I will investigate and create a minimal environment.
Because of an own section for nix/nixos and darwin nix users should know where nix/nixos section and be able to navigate to the documentation
Because I don't want to have anymore flake templates on my github neither maintain it there, so that's why I am linking to a good example of how to use the above shell.nix in a flake

@Eveeifyeve is this ready? |

I'd prefer if you wrap it into a :::info aside, as of now it kinda mixed with the text content right after it. Ofc if you have a better idea than aside it could work.
This is not finished as I got to resolve #2413 (comment). I am also going to mark this pr as a draft in a sec because of this. |
